I talk a lot about making choices. You are in a bad situation, you have the options to dwell and feel sorry for yourself or to figure out the next best thing. These choices aren't about what is ideal, it's about what will make us happier of the options.
If you start to feel sorry for yourself, watch this video... I hope it has the same impact on you as it has had on me.
I've asked myself a few times: What if both my choices are bad ones and neither will make me really happy, just one is better than the other? Well, frankly that is up to you. I never could have told this kid that he can sit around and dwell on his blindness or go play football. It was 100% up to him. He decided to play and as you can see, he struggles mightily, but he does not quit. And all of sudden, he is inspiration for others. His calling wasn't to be a pro football player. His calling was to remind people like you and me that there is just no excuse to not keep on truckin'.
